Default Wired a 16V capacitor with ESC + - Connection

Hello all,

I got an ESC and a 1/10 scale motor in a bundle I purchased. The ESC and motor are soldered together and the +/- connections have a capacitor soldered into them. Can some please help me understand why?

If this was a 1/8 scale with a bigger PS or bigger engine, would I need a different sized capacitor?

Thanks a lot.

ESC's are noisy! And if you do a search here you will get some people saying different things.
